Well, its gonna be time to test drive the 68 soon, and if I don't have it insured something is bound to happen. Anyone have a favorite classic insurance company? Grundy.com, who I've never heard of before advertises no mileage restrictions like another company I called.

We use Hagerty's Classic Auto Insurance. They are on the net and you can't beat the price. We pay less than $200.00 a year for full coverage, stated value, on our '65.  No milage restrictions, either. Check them out. You will be pleased.  Dave & Terri ------------------

I've also got Hegartys. No problems at all, but then again, seeing how I'm 3,000 miles away, the car just sits in the garage.

I have insurance with Nationwide. I don't insure my pony for full coverage because I don't drive it but maybe a few weeks out of the year, and I just take my chances. I pay 150.00 basic coverage for the year.

Great info, Dave and Nic! I just looked up Hagerty's site and got a quote based on a 'high' estimated value of my car, and it's still better than the premiums I'm paying now for less coverage. Thanks guys! M&M is the BEST Ford site on the web! ------------------

I too use Hagerty's. I used to use Nationwide thinking that the multi-car discount would offset the savings I might get elsewhere. I also had no collision since I didn't drive it much. Now I have no mileage limits, and $7500 stated value insurance, and I still come in cheaper than Nationwide was giving me. There are some stipulations though, like must have it in a garage, etc. Fortunately, I had them all covered!

Your Welcome! Glad to be a help. I to shopped around for insurance and couldn't beat what Hagerty's has to offer. Enjoy saving a few bucks to buy new parts for the Stang.  Dave & Terri ------------------

Thanks for all the input. I think I'm going to give Grundy's a try. One reason is the relatively low coverage limits posted on Hagerty's web site. $50,000 doesn't go so far if you have a bad accident or an accident with someone with a good lawyer. Also, a local Haggerty rep told me they now had a 2,500 mile a year limit. My mother has worked for a "Big" insurance company and with the stories I hear when I vist, I just don't trust them. No offense mom!
